Oracle!Tim has a wheelchair, but hates using it. He loudly insists he doesn’t need to when almost anyone suggests it. He can get around just fine on crutches, and it’s bad enough the way people treat him like that; he refuses to have them literally looking down on him.

Except, see, the thing is… he does need it. By the end of the day navigating on his crutches, Tim hurts. His back is screaming from the shoulders down, his spine feels almost swollen with how it takes over his senses (burning, throbbing, every click & grind of bone like having a knife wedged between the vertebrae,) the skin on his legs feels like it’s trying to crawl off his body, and there’s sharp needles of pain shooting through his leg muscles. If Tim spends the day on his feet/moving around a lot on his crutches, he’s going to spend the next 3 nights trying to be Oracle while flat on his back on the floor. (Tim does try to get around this by having wheelie chairs in all his offices and just not walking around much, but if the weather turns cold or a big storm blows in, even that won’t help.)

He gets better about it over time. Cass drags Tim into helping with her specific charity work, helping other disabled kids in Gotham. Tim ends up giving interviews in which he talks about being an ambulatory wheelchair user, how he’s treated when he goes out in the chair, how people act like it’s all a horrible lie if they ever see him get up from it, and how it combines with Tim’s own pride & internalized ableism to lead to him gritting his teeth and just pushing through. “It’s not worth it,” he tells Vicki Vale, a rueful smile on his face. “It’s never worth it, to go home and lay on the floor in too much pain to move, just so the people at the grocery store don’t see me in my chair. But I do it anyway, and I’m probably going to keep doing it… so if you see me out in public, please ask me if I’m being stupid, because there’s a good chance the answer is yes.” People laugh. Vicki calls him brave for talking about it. Tim says if he can raise just a little attention, make people a little more aware of how they treat people in (and out) of wheelchairs, he’ll have done something good.

Then he goes home. Lays on the floor. And tries not to cry while one of his loved ones rubs tiger balm into his back, because no, people don’t understand, it fucking hurts.

You know my ass isn’t coping well with finals when I suddenly pull out the silliest AU possible /lh

ANYWAYS, presenting ‘Working for E.V.I.L.’, a Sun and Moon show AU I wanna work on when I’m not doing Hive Au centric stuff :3c

[ID: A digitally drawn sketch of Au versions of Solar Flare, Bloodmoon and Eclipse from the Sun and Moon Show against a white background. To the left of the image, Solar Flare and Bloodmoon stand next to each other. Solar Flare holds up a hand, a star levitating over their palm. They have a circular head that’s surrounded by spiked rays, large triangular shoulder pads, eyes with a black sclera, and a set of air vents in their chest and mouth. They look down at Bloodmoon, an animatronic that wears multiple chains and belts over baggy pants and a ripped shirt. Bloodmoon also has horns, two devil-like tails, and a twin tailed jester hat. He looks towards the viewer with a wide, dangerous smile. In the upper right hand corner, there is a doodle of Eclipse an animatronic with a circular head and large rays that surround his head with smaller, smaller rays in between, he wears a sweater and a necklace with a star attached to it, sitting at a desk in front of an old box computer. Above him is a thought bubble that reads “KC is going to fire us.” Below that is a doodle of Eclipse speaking to Bloodmoon and Solar Flare over a headset, he says “Ive located another star, dont screw this up you two.” The very top of the image says “Working for EVIL.” With ‘evil’ being an acronym. /End ID]

sci fi has taken itself way too seriously the past decade or so, so to see this new doctor who be unapologetically fun is so healing

Hi @soccerpunching remember when I said I would draw manhandling—

[goblin-ghosty]

Serious/vent post:

I hate my disability cause within one week I wake up and feel like I don't need any mobility aids, and then I wake up today barely able to get out of bed and feeling like the mobility aids I have aren't enough.

What's worse is that it's basically a placeholder diagnosis. "Fibromyalgia" (for me at least) is just to say 'yeah this bitch is disabled, give them accommodations' without actually telling me what's wrong with me, as I'm nearly certain it's something else. Don't get me wrong, I am grateful for accommodations and the privilege that I have to be able to go to doctors and such. But I need to be able to complain at least a little because 'people have it worse' doesn't make my pain go away.

Anyway, Imma go take some ibuprofen, do homework (cause it's due today), and then pass out or something.

Remember your pain is valid.

Have a better day than yesterday <3

I keep up with a couple of the “Luz ends up in the demon realm a few years early and gets snapped up + brainwashed by Belos” AUs because I think canon divergence and roleswap AUs are fun, and like. Given how incredibly emotionally important Azura is to her, and how deeply it’s connected with her dad. I think you could plausibly have a huge emotional turning point in such an AU be Luz rediscovering the Azura series (after Belos told her years ago to stop talking about it because he’s so pissed modern humans are writing stories about heroic witches) and going 🥺 no longer evil just want to be loved 🥺 because she suddenly remembered what a loving family is supposed to be like, and the positive values and good ethics Manny and Camila raised her with, and how much she wanted to be a Good Witch who fights for peace and befriends her rivals. I think bad guy roleswap Luz should be redeemed by the power of cringe YA fantasy. And its gay subtext.
